I was hoping to find a scientist version of this meme to post on FB, and instead I got a glimpse of how many profs think they are a cross between James Watson and, shit, I dunno, William Kennedy Smith?<br /><br />For the record, fuck those guys, from me and most other men I know in science.Allison M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/08362700513221195102noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29059245.post-91522338368706361622012-02-15T23:06:13.055-06:002012-02-15T23:06:13.055-06:00Hi FSP I been following your blog for a bit now an...Hi FSP I been following your blog for a bit now and I'm really thankful that you have shared it. I am an undergraduate and don't imagine my life without research, but recently became overwhelmed with thoughts of future family issues. Not many female professors at my university with children so I was so happy to find your blog. I know it's early for me to worry, but still it helps to know it's possible to have both. I read article in Chronicle this week about NSF plans for female scientists. It's really hopeful. thank you so muchranahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05314220094300517991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29059245.post-11938078671410564412012-02-15T18:59:21.898-06:002012-02-15T18:59:21.898-06:00I hate these too.

In some, the provocative female student panel is in the Friends panel instead of the Colleague one, but it is always there and the professor is always male.

Why not? Everyone's entitled look-but-don't-touch privileges. <br /><br />It's weird that's the "collegues" one, though. I mean I assume that colleagues would not expect you to be hitting on students, regardless of your sex. Maybe that would be what parents think or what undergrads think??Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29059245.post-31061030929248321372012-02-15T02:06:57.374-06:002012-02-15T02:06:57.374-06:00I saw one where the girl was wearing a mini-skirt....I saw one where the girl was wearing a mini-skirt.

The one of the male professor with the female student is unfortunately an image that I, as a non-shorts-wearing-non-provocative-young-female-student had a rather nasty brush with at a conference. <br /><br />It was not so much about what colleagues thought this very-famous professor X did, though sure as hell I have seen some of his younger male entourage admire his "perks"; it was more what HE though he was entitled to. This unfortunately led to some serious sexual harassment, he pushed himself into and cornered me in a unisex restroom and proceeded to assault me when thankfully one of the restroom attendants realized something was up, and intervened. <br /><br />I know I was certainly not the only one. As with most sexual harassment cases, being a newish grad student on a student visa, I did not dare to complain, particularly as he was very famous and careful not to leave any dna evidence, the attendant who saved me did not bother to stick around after. I was also unaware of my rights at that time so did not raise a huge fuss, and was simply too frightened to talk about it publicly about someone whose papers I based much of my then work on. But I have heard other women bitch and warn me about him too, sadly after the incident had already happened.<br />Today, I would have handled it more boldly, and will certainly seek to protect my female students from sorts like this creep.<br /><br />So yes, that image is a disturbing reality of what *some* male professors think they are entitled to, and what other younger male profs who schmooze them aspire to get as a perk someday.<br /><br />Sorry if I sound bitter.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29059245.post-65754553200304515432012-02-15T00:43:17.747-06:002012-02-15T00:43:17.747-06:00image of an attractive female student in short-sho...<i>image of an attractive female student in short-shorts</i><br /><br />For what it's worth, there's nothing in the image to suggest she isn't wearing full-length jeans, as far as I can tell. <br /><br />(And I realize it's not worth much at all; I only point it out because of your emphasis on how short her shorts are, which presumably had some import or you wouldn't have bothered, right?)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
